Play riff 1, then begin riff 2 while singing: 

Coyotes tiptoe in the snow after dark 
(riff 1) 
At home with the ghosts in the national parks 
Em          D                 C     G (hold)    
Mankind's behavin' like some serial killers 
Em          D        C            G (hold)    
Giant ol' monsters afraid of the sharks 

Em  D       C       G 
And we're in love with all of it 
Em    D    C          G 
And we say: "What can we say?" 

(riff 2) 
Walking with ghosts in the national parks 
(riff 1) 
Coyotes tiptoe in the snow after dark 

Em  D       C       G 
And we're in love with all of it 
Em    D    C          G 
And we say: "What can we say?"

(riff 2) 
Another branch on the timber-bound tree

Giant ol' monsters, afraid of the sharks

And we're in love with all of it 
Em    D    C          G 
And we say: "What can we say?"
